Re: rough time

does anyone ever not know what to do with themselves?

how do you guys fill in your days?


Ive got my caring role for both the kids and pop but sometimes despite it being overwhelming it can be quite boring and repetitive too. i have another job which i do on the days its quiet, then the 3rd job that is a little better and i get the social interactions and things but i feel so- i dont really know.
when im at home its the same thing cleaning, dealing with pop but also doing things like exercise, crochet and occassionally the study. i often feel i need a days rest here and there but to much i feel like i go backwards.
i dont know if its because the way i was brought up i was busy alot, even forcing myself to be busy with school or the horses, or caring roles or whatever i was doing that now i find i cant stop doing things- not sure if that makes sense or not.

i get anxious sitting around sometimes but i also lack motivation.


does anyone mind sharing your thoughts? its been bothering me for a while but usually by the time i think to address it the next moods taken its place.

Re: rough time

Learning to sit with yourself is a skill that takes time to develop @outlander You don't have to always be doing something but it does also help to have a few things in your coping box that yuo can do when yu are feeling like that. It is often the simple things for me like bubbles that help when I am feeling a little frustrated with things. Lack of motivation is a big factor but learning to actually have rest and be okay with it on occasions is also something that I had to do.
